Abstract
A multi-use type heating apparatus is disclosed having a heat-generating body as a heat source, receptacle-type heating chambers provided integrally therewith for internally accommodating objects to be heated, the heating chambers being arranged around the heat-generating body at a predetermined distance remote from the heat-generating body, a heat transmission medium to be filled in the heating chambers, together with any objects to be heated, and a working mechanism for setting the heat-radiating temperature of the heat-generating body.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1. A heating apparatus of multi-use type comprising a thermally conductive heater body formed with a central elongate bore and further elongate bores surrounding the central bore, the further bores defining heating chambers, a heat-generating body disposed in the central bore, the heating chambers disposed at locations remote from said heat-generating body, flowable thermal conduction medium in at least one of said heating chambers, and a working mechanism for setting a heat-radiating temperature of said heat-generating body.
2. A heating apparatus of multi-use type as claimed in claim 1, wherein said heat-generating body comprises a heater of electric heat conversion types, said heat-generating body being disposed centrally of said heating chambers which are arranged at an equal space and an equal distance from said body.
3. A heating apparatus of multi-use type as claimed in claim 2, wherein said heating apparatus is provided with an adiabatic body, wound over an outer surface of said heater body.
4. A heating apparatus as claimed in claim 3 wherein said heater body is supported on posts above a base.
5. A heating apparatus of multi-use type as claimed in claim 1, wherein the apparatus is replicated in a common housing.
6. A heating apparatus of multi-use type as claimed in claim 1, further including a heat-receiving body having a plurality of accommodation pipes to be inserted into the respective heating chambers.
7. A heating apparatus of multi-use type as claimed in claim 5, wherein said heat-receiving body is provided with a brim plate fitted integrally with said accommodation pipes and a knob fitted to said brim plate.
8. A heating apparatus as claimed in claim 6 further including flowable thermal conduction medium in at least one of said pipes.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
